wild rice pilaf
Seasoned grain dish
Wild rice pilaf is a grain dish combining wild rice—the dark, chewy seed of an aquatic grass—with aromatics, broth, and often other ingredients like mushrooms, nuts, or dried fruit.
The pilaf method involves toasting the grain before simmering, yielding distinct, separate grains rather than a sticky mass.
A staple of American holiday tables and upscale restaurants: The turkey came with wild rice pilaf and green beans.
